I quietly watch you play

Jiang Zhen's original name was Lin Zhen, and he was born in Molin, an obscure northern county. His parents were both teachers, and he had an easy-going older brother.

Lin Siyuan and his wife are strict with their children. I don't know if it's because his elder brother Lin Yu has taken advantage of the few good temperaments of his parents. Lin Zhen has been stubborn and rebellious since he was a child, and contracted more than [-]% of his parents' stick education.

"The names your grandfather gave us are all trees, elm: the wood is hard and smooth, and it is a good material for carving into objects; Zhen, the hard wood, the ling dong is green and the chastity."

Jiang Zhen took a deep breath of the frost and cold in the forest, and turned into a phoenix tree that was not afraid of the wind and snow, just as his parents wished.

But her parents are not a mountain that breeds trees, but a wind and snow that specially tests her.

She went south all the way, to Danyang, to Bitan, avoiding her wind and snow all the way, looking for a warm harbor.

"I don't want to remember a lot of things when I was a child. In my dreams, I occasionally think of being punished. I was punished for copying books, kneeling, dinner, and pocket money... I didn't go to university until I was [-] years old. I also passed the exam the year before. Secretly changed to a teacher by your grandfather, he thinks that the best way out for a girl is to stay at home with a teaching job, and then find a colleague who also holds a job job to marry, and have two more children and continue to pass it on from her parents This is called "Scholarly Mendi"... Later, when I was admitted to the Danyang Institute of Foreign Languages, they were very angry, thinking that in the future, foreign language learners will do some glitzy and vain work, earning money from selling their bones , those are called 'speculation'."

Lin Zhen went to Danyang, a big city, to study alone. Lin Yu only dared to secretly send her to the train station. Her parents even threatened to sever ties with her and did not prepare her luggage and living expenses.

At that time, Lin Mu was already in the fifth grade at the Danish University School of Medicine. He was still a loner outsider with excellent grades. He had few friends and entertainment, and he was obsessed with his studies all day long.

Lin Zhen unexpectedly discovered that Lin Mu's living conditions were much better than her, even better than she imagined. He didn't need a work-study program to subsidize his expenses, and he was even more particular about his clothes than when he was in Molin.At that time, she half-jokingly teased whether Lin Mu had a girlfriend, but Lin Mu just smiled shyly.

It was the best age of 20 years old, and there were so many girls in the outer courtyard, so the atmosphere was unavoidable.

Although Lin Zhen is not a vain person, she also has the beauty-loving nature and self-esteem of a girl. The little money Lin Yu secretly saves to help her is only enough to survive, and Lin Mu is helping her with the rest.

Lin Mu is also very strange, he seldom gives money directly to help people, and he buys food and clothing and sends them to Lin Zhen.

Books, snacks, and daily necessities are all easy to talk about. Lin Zhen was surprised that he even chose the girls' clothes very aesthetically, and often even the well-informed girls in the outer courtyard were very envious.

Lin Zhen asked him how he knew these things, Lin Mu hesitated and said that a friend helped him choose, and then asked who it was, he only said that he was a very good friend.

Lin Zhen can almost be sure that she is a girl that Lin Mu likes very much. She should be cheerful, love to laugh, have a good family background, and have many friends. She is the type that just complements Lin Mu. There was only a small gap in the enclosed space, and it was impossible to prevent the ray of sunlight from shooting straight into his chest.

If Lin Zhen was also a well-behaved little girl who accepted her elder brother's feeding and care honestly, maybe her life would not turn on that uncontrollable narrow road and meet Jiang Baichang.

Lin Zhen couldn't sit back and enjoy the success with peace of mind. After one semester, she started doing odd jobs to make money. In the summer vacation of her freshman year, she took advantage of her English major to find a temporary job as a real estate salesperson.

At that time, the commercial housing market was not as prosperous and mature as it is today, but it was in a stage of rapid development. Temporary sales workers could get a commission based on their performance, which was very challenging.

Jiang Zhen suddenly raised the corners of his lips: "That's when I met your father. He was in his 40s and looked much younger than your grandfather."

"The project on sale is an apartment for foreign experts. It is required to speak better English. I recite the English introduction of the real estate whenever I have time every day. I can recite it fluently. I especially want to sell a house. At that time, I could get a commission of 300 yuan. 300 yuan Yuan is your grandfather's monthly income, which is enough for me to pay my tuition fees for a year, which is really a lot."

"But I never expected that the only client who listened carefully to my house introduction after half a month was your father. He came three or four times. The first time was to hear me muttering the introduction to the wall. He asked me Let me introduce it to him. I was so nervous that I forgot that the person standing in front of me was a Chinese. I babbled a few words in English, and he couldn’t stop listening to it. He laughed. The next few times, I gradually talked about other things. At that time, I wanted to make money. I thought this person was annoying, and it was a waste of my time just to watch but not to buy, but chatting with him was a bit...relaxed and interesting."

"Until I was about to be wiped out with zero performance, your father suddenly said that he was going to buy an apartment. I was not happy and ecstatic, but shocked. He wore an ordinary shirt and trousers every time. I thought he couldn't afford it there. I don’t even know that he is the owner of the developer, and I’m selling the house he sold to him.”

"And then... the story is stale, he has everything I dreamed of and I'm just a normal girl in my early twenties with nothing but dreams. I'll live in that apartment on the weekends, he's not free every week home, but I finally feel like I have a family."

"Did you know why Lin Mu dropped out of school?" Seeing Lin Zhen turning his head, Jiang Xiaoqi accompanied her down the mountain.

"I can guess a little bit. He didn't tell me the cause and effect." Jiang Zhen put his hand into the pocket of his coat, seeming a little cold, "Lin Mu loves Wei Lerong, and your father and I live together. It's a deformed relationship that is not recognized by the world. , we are doomed to only guard our sliced ​​sunshine in the shadows. Therefore, even though we knew what the other person was going through and what they were chasing at that time, we never opened up and broke it. It was a kind of silent recognition and support Bar."

"After listening to your story, I really figured out a lot of things. For example, when he was financially rich, it is likely that Ji Qing helped him or repaid him behind the scenes, including that the school he was able to apply for after dropping out of school should also be Ji Qing's." Credit. Ji Qing is very smart, she knows that Lin Mu is a person worth investing in, and she also knows which way to take to integrate into that circle, and Wei Lerong is her shortcut."

"We only met Wei Lerong once. I think Wei Lerong helped to choose many clothes that Lin Mu bought for me at that time. This may be one of the few excuses for him to get close to Wei Lerong. In those two years, my identity was not visible. , and I don't like entering that unfamiliar world, I just miss the sense of security your father gave me, I like our little family."

Jiang Zhen bit her lower lip, as if she was brewing some kind of courage: "That day..."

She raised her eyes in panic, looked at the villa hidden by dead trees, and took a deep breath: "...you guessed it right, I was in the room at the time, I didn't like it here, although it was very big and luxurious, I still liked that room Small apartment. Your father and uncle were arguing about business matters, I couldn’t understand, and I was pregnant with you and very sleepy, I fell asleep while reading a book in the study.”

"I was awakened by the sound of something smashing in the living room, and I wanted to open the door to go out to have a look... Then, I saw Jiang Xiaoteng and Lin Mu were there at some point, and your uncle was lying on the floor... They, the spray was targeted He breathed the air, it should be light... He gave him artificial respiration, and then pressed him hard, he pinched his nose, blocked his mouth, it wasn't the heart that was pressed, it was the stomach...he was struggling all the time ..."

Tears filled Jiang Zhen's eyes, his body was trembling uncontrollably, avoiding his son's embrace, as if he was afraid that he would get something unclean on his body.

"I was very scared and scared, and I was completely blank. When I finally realized what happened, they all left, and I was the only one left in the villa. Your father sent a message to my phone, telling me Stay in the room and don’t go out, I know there is surveillance in the living room, but after a few hours, the previous content will be automatically overwritten, I guess he doesn’t want others to know I was there.”

"I was alone all night, like a prisoner awaiting judgment, and that's when I started thinking about running away. I wanted to take you away from the terrible things, and live quietly somewhere where no one knew us. But I'm not sure about them Will you let us go, so I randomly found a video and pretended to post it before deleting it, I don’t know if this will work, but I have to give it a try.”

"At dawn, your father brought people back. Those people took the surveillance video in the living room, and then he came to see me in the room. I begged him to let us go, and for your sake, let us mother and son go, I swore never to speak out, and I threatened him with a fake video... That scene, I looked like a poorly-acted clown, and he looked like a helpless audience, it was absurd.”

"Then he took off his scarf, put it on me, and sent me out... He asked me what I needed from him, and I said I didn't want anything, but I took his scarf with me, except you Take away a scarf from him. Perhaps he didn’t want Jiang Xiaoteng to find out that he was causing trouble for our mother and son, so he found a relationship and changed my name to Jiang’s surname.”

So many years later, when Jiang Bai often received the hazel-shaped scarf that Jiang Zhenzhi gave him, he would be in a daze for a moment.

She gave him an excellent child, and returned to him the only thing she took away. The only bond and love between them was this son.

"After that incident, have you seen Lin Shu?"

Jiang Zhen nodded: "Yes, I went to him. I want to ask why he did that."

That was the second time Jiang Zhen saw Lin Mu after he returned from Johns Hopkins University, and the first time, he lost the warmth of his old brother and turned into a murderous devil without blinking an eye.

"He said he had no other choice. Jiang Xiaoteng asked him to do it. Jiang Xiaoteng didn't know about my relationship with Lin Mu, nor did he know what I witnessed in the villa at the time. He told me to leave Jiang's house and Dan as soon as possible. Yang, the farther you go, the better. He said that Jiang Xiaoteng is a cruel man, whether he knew that I was pregnant with the Jiang family's child, or that he knew that I was there that day, he would never let me go."

"He didn't allow me to ask questions, and he wouldn't answer any questions I asked. He only said that he had evidence of Jiang Xiaoteng's mastermind, and that your father would definitely side with the eldest son in the end, so he used that evidence to blackmail your father to let me go. Leave, if something happens to me, he and Jiang Jiayu will die."

"He also said," Jiang Zhen glanced at the slowly approaching figures on the mountain road, and spoke quickly, "Your father always put Jiang Sheng first. In the rich and powerful families, there is always only winners and losers, regardless of good and evil. You can't win." It’s better for people to leave early.”

The figure was close enough to see clearly, the mother and son stopped, Jiang Zhen turned his head and smiled at his son: "Tell Xiaowei, maybe two mothers will accompany him to celebrate the New Year this year, me, and Wei Lerong."

The figure finally approached, and the maid was holding the camel velvet cloak panting to help Jiang Zhen put it on, and then she breathed out and said, "Madam, Third Young Master, sir is here, and it is really winter for the two of you to climb the mountain in such a cold day." Practice Sanjiu, Madam will catch a cold if she freezes, go back quickly."

Jiang Zhen caressed the hem of Shunxin's coat, and followed the maid back to the villa.

Thursday

The corridor at the entrance of the law examination room of the Dong’an Sub-bureau looks like a flea market for luxury goods. Clothes, shoes and socks, literature, calligraphy and paintings, books and toys, clocks and perfumes are all available, and there is even a newly maintained women’s bicycle.

Everyone has to see each other when they come out and go in. It's like bravely entering a minefield.

Sister Hua exclaimed through the protective film of physical evidence: "...This is the legendary Burberry men's fragrance, I really want to take a sip... Oh my god, the diamond on this watch has to be cut out by one carat, so you can't throw it away... ...I'll go, compared to this mink that I didn't bother to remove the hang tag that day, it's like rat skin... Oops...Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..."

Jiang Xiaoming turned a blind eye to his ignorant son, and jumped into the law examination room with a three-level jump: "Old Fan! What's the result?"

Without further ado, Fan Ke grabbed Dui Jiang by the collar and pressed him against the window: "Look downstairs, there is half a ton of construction waste brought in this morning. Do your people treat my place as a waste treatment plant?" To tell you the truth, with this size, our department will not sleep, eat or drink, and it will take ten and a half days to finish all the work! Don't say that I deliberately delay you to death."

"Chief Fan, Brother Fan!" Dui Jiang apologized, "I'm really counting on you to continue my life here, you can think of a way? If you don't crucify the old boy to rescue the hostage within three days, Director Liu will take my skin , you can't bear to look at it, don't you?"

"I can't bear it!" Lao Fan sat back next to the microscope and replaced it with a new glass slide. "After all, I just saw a dozen dead cats with rotting skin and rotten flesh, and my psychological endurance has improved significantly."

The young female forensic doctor made an OK gesture from the inside, and Section Chief Fan immediately put aside personal grievances and turned on the computer: "Speaking of business, we compared the crop samples found in the floor cracks of Villa 2 and the soil in the flowerpots of Villa 4, and confirmed that they were corn. and millet, and belong to the same place of origin, have homologous genes, and have been preserved for more than 20 years, that is to say, crop particles from the same source appeared successively in the two villas where the suspect once lived.”

Chief Fan tapped the keyboard, and the picture on the screen changed, showing a sorting box full of baby clothes, and the familiar yellow crop particles also appeared in the detailed enlarged picture.

"This box comes from Villa 5, that is, the discarded items brought from Mrs. Zhou's villa. After comparison, it is also two kinds of rice grains from the same source. Don't get excited, look here," Chief Fan circled the card of the sorting box with the mouse Buckle position, "a little fabric fiber is extracted here, which is red cotton thread, so we speculate that the baby pillow with rice grains should have been stored in this box, and it was accidentally scratched by the corner of the buckle when it was taken out. A small amount was left behind."

Jiang Xiaoming tapped his knees quickly with his fingers, and his mind was spinning: "Good job! This means that Sammy's people have appeared in these three villas. If it is Wei Lerong, she is most likely to leave a distress signal on purpose. But why did she use this method, would it be more direct to leave fingerprints or bloodstains?"

"No biological information of Wei Lerong has been found for the time being, neither fingerprints nor bloodstains." Chief Fan denied it ruthlessly.

"The evidence is not hard enough," Jiang Xiaoming scratched the stubble on his chin, "Old Fan, help me think about it. If you were a suspect, what reason would you use to explain the behavior of throwing rice everywhere?"

Section Chief Fan pondered for a few seconds: "em~~~ I'm actually conducting a group of comparative experiments on soilless cultivation of millet and yellow rice, using soft fabrics and composite boards as culture media respectively. Those were the control group."

Jiang Xiaoming stood up, and patted Lao Fan's shoulder sympathetically: "Brother Fan, it's better to concentrate on the law that remains unchanged for 100 years, and don't think about the violation of law and discipline. Those downstairs are really not me. It was intentional, it just so happened that after throwing things away, they turned around and redecorated, please! Please!"

"Team Jiang!" Police officer Xiaowen stood at the door with his neck stretched and looked into the forensic room across the mountains and seas. He was hesitating whether it was Youjump or Ijump, when Jiang Xiaoming almost knocked him back where he came from with a leap.

"Team Jiang, the monitoring technology of Linmu Clinic has been analyzed. According to some information and data recovered on the server, he did not take indiscriminate photographs of the consultation subjects, but every time the video was sent at the same time as Zhou Wei's visit. Go to a fixed IP terminal, the specific location should be in Lin Mu's existing villa!"

"You think this person is really perverted?" Police officer Xiaowen shook his head and sighed, "Illegally imprisoned his adoptive mother for more than 20 years, and even peeped at the young and handsome man. What kind of weird orientation is this?!"

"It's not the trees peeping!" Jiang Xiaoming suddenly stopped, turned around and hurried down the steps.Officer Xiaowen didn't know, so he followed along: "Who is that, who is peeping?"

Jiang Xiaoming went straight out the door to unlock the guide: "Wei Lerong, Lin Mu is showing Wei Lerong Zhou Wei's video, this is probably one of his means of controlling Wei Lerong... I suddenly have an idea..."
